Civic Drama Guild
Presents Comedy
To-Close Series
Although not . recommended
for a Boy Scout conclave or a
district meeting of women's
dubs, "The Voice of the Turtle."
the third Civic Drama guild play,
presented at the high school audi
torium, proved to be an enter
taining, though slightly risque,
voice.
The play, while falling into
the category of comedy, was not
a "Deuy-iaugn piay out nts
more readily into .the snicker
classification and seemed to be
particularly amusing to the ex
servicemen in the audience. '
"Voice of the Turtle" starred
Phyllis Manning as a lush blonde
with whom nature has been ex
ceedingly bountiful in every de
partment except the "upper
story. The success of the play
hinged upon the effectiveness
with which Miss Manning con
vinced the audience of the au
thenticity of her role as a
struggling young actress recov
ering from two love affairs but
who still has dew in her eyes,
roses in her cheeks and a vacuum
still between the ears. In a pur
ple sweater, Miss Manning out-
Lana d Lana Turner.
Helen McCall as Olive Lash-
brooke gave an amusing and vig
orous performance as the Broad
way actress who had been
around too long and too much
on the merry-go-round known
as life, but who still was willing
and able to try once again for
the brass ring.
Wendell Mayes wa? sufficient
ly sophisticated as Bill Page, the
soldier with a cosmopolitan back
ground who found himself
cooped up for a week-end with
the girl from Joplin, Mo.
"Voice of the Turtle" was the
third and last Civic Drama guild
play which will be presented
here this season. Tickets for next
season's performances may be
obtained from members of Ro
tana or 20-30 club who jointly
sponsor the plays in Medford.

Quartet Program Closes
Civic Music
. By MRS. E. E. GORE
Jackson' County Civic Music
association brought the 1051-52
series of five concerts to a close
Friday, March 14, with the pre
sentation of the National Male
Quartet: Attilio Baggiore, tenor;
Gene Tobin, tenor; Vernon Sand
ers, baritone, and.Bruce McKay,
bass.
The well-known pre-eminence
of each member of the quartet
as an artist in his own field gave
promise of an outstanding eve
ning of musical entertainment
that was generously fulfilled.
So limited and restricted is the
available music originally com
posed and written for male quar
tet that these artists and their ac
companist, Walter Hatchek, as
sisted by - Leonard Marker, ar
ranger, selected from the vast
repertory of opera and song
what seemed to be the universal
favorite in its own class. Taking
each number out of its own set
ting, changing the original key,
without aid of scenery, dramatic
action or orchestra, they devised
four-part harmony that was mu
sically and technically interest
ing. The program, far from being

heavy or dull was at once light,
gay, dramatic and exciting. The
quality and timbre of the .dif
ferent voice, the- sensitivity to
change of mood, pleased the au
dience very , much and stirred
memories of both one's own sing
ing days and of other concerts.
The men seemed to have a
limitless store of well-prepared
numbers .and responded to the
audience demand for more music
by giving 10 or 12 encores.
These were appreciated fully as

where they sang for Oregon

their way to towns in Minnesota
for a heavy booking of spring
concerts.
The present series, more or
less confined to light musical en
tertainment, had a definite ap
peal and much regret was ex
pressed that this delightful con
cert should mark the close of the
season.
